I could write a block text about how interesting I think I am but I'd seriously just like to demonstrate that through my writings if possible.

I've been a part of the site for months now, but never really felt the need to introduce myself… until now.

I've been wanting to write my own scips for a while but there are so many good ideas out there that its quite overwhelming to find that perfect starter. So a new idea dawned on me, why not write a section that's entirely based on the construction of containment.

Lots of tales focus on the action, MTFs securing the unknown, others protecting the innocent, but one of the most commonly mentioned aspects of the Foundation, Containment protocols, is usually just listed and moved along to the interesting juicy parts of the articles.

I hope to contribute that area, the Test-Guys who design and create these containment rooms. Perhaps have trends in areas like Sound-Hazard or Cognitive-Hazard, using the tales as not only an interesting read, but a guideline for writers to better construct the box to contain their horrible little monsters.

This idea is in no way mine alone, and I actually encourage others to help me, especially those more experienced than I, and I really look forward to releasing my sample texts to the sandbox to see what you guys think.

Anyways, I wrote more than I originally hoped for so I'll just stop rig-

Hey, it's pretty awesome that you're interested in contributing to containment! It's definitely something that could use more expansion—if you haven't seen these yet, definitely take a look at these blueprints by Dr Reach and SCP-2317 for the wham line "Containment Procedures: Irrelevant".

but a guideline for writers to better construct the box to contain their horrible little monsters.

Keep in mind that SCP objects aren't all monsters, and some effectively-otherwise-benign things may require unorthodox containment simply because of their anomalous abilities/effects. SCPsdon'tneedtobemonsterstobesuccessful!

That said, when you've got something ready for review on the sandbox, bring it to the IRC chat and/or the drafts forums for the people there to take a look at. Furthermore, if you've got any questions, comments, or concerns, feel free to PM me or another staff member.
